Touchbuddy DCS Export FIXED...

[Snacko]

I recently fixed the Touchbuddy export for it's modules (TEWS, Payload, Warning panel) from Lockon FC2 to work with DCS World.

 

Get it here.

hey. i use touchbuddy..

one of the best programs.

but when i use it, im just using it as a server client mode, i dont do anything fancy with DCS.

 

what is this script all about?

[hannibal]

also i am the creator of the DCS A10C profile 1.0.0.8 AND black shark profile for 7" touch screen users (black shark mini-vana) in your downloads section... do i have to update it?

[Snacko]

Ah yes, Hannibal. I have seen your profiles.

 

Well TB has always (one of the first probably) exported game data out of Lockon. Then Zorlac (the programmer) bailed on the project. But I have been updating his lua script to export the data out of Lockon FC, then Lockon FC 2, and now DCS World.

 

It exports the TEWS/RWR data, Payload data, and Warnings Panel data. And Zorlac had originally written 3 modules that you can put in any profile that would graphically display that data. Here is an old Lockon example. But those same modules are still working in TB.

 

[hannibal]

yes, now i remember this..

 

can this also be done via server/client?

 

ok, but also a question outside of touchbuddy, do you think it is possible to export the shkval, a10a tv monitor, TEWS, RWR to a client PC? (nothing to do with hawgtouch or helios)

[Snacko]

I don't know. I have not tried it.

 

I am not sure if Zorlac made this work in network mode. It would be only a matter of exporting the data across the network and then displaying it. But if he didn't, I would think you could map a network drive to the export file and tell TB where it is. Worth a try.

[hannibal]

you going to attempt this?

:)

[Snacko]

Nope. Not unless I need to.

 

I don't solve problems until they occur. Mine is working in local mode.
